At ll:2O last night the residents OF

was done them ct all. The house In
which the hrs started was the only
one occupied and 1t Is believed the
possessi ons Of the occupants were
saved. A red hot stove was the pri.
mary cause Of the fire. To protect ad-
joining property the last house Of the
three was pulled TO pieces after violent
effort q d the "heave ho" Of two score
helpers. Louis King and VIM. Van
Gasken generslled the forces and kept
the band Of workers where they could
do the most good. In half an hour
the fire was under control and the
crowd dispersed.
The corner house, where the fire
originated, was the property Of r. p.
KDowlton; the next one was owned
by Henry Tusler and the third by
Gen. Brisbin. All three Of them were
insured, but in what companies and to
what amount we failed to discover.
The loss would probably be covered by
$500 aud there Is little doubt the in.
sursnce companies will be the lossrs,
as the owners Of this property are bus

them uninsured.

the first to give the alarm and in the

How He Did an Insurance Cam-
pany.

Josiah Miller went to an insurance
company to get a policy Oh ons Of bin
vessels that was about to sail from
the West Indies for New York city
with q valuable cargo. The NewYork
Sun tells the story in the following
language: The insurance was heavy
and so was the premium, because the
ship was not rated very well at Llyod'a.
MI. Miller paid the premium and was
told to call IN a day or two for tbs
policy. He called several times, but
the clerks always had an xcuse 10 of
fer. The president had not signed tina
policy, but would do so when hecamein
and the document would be sent
around in a day OF so. One mornlnga
man came 70 Mr.. Miller after a breatLs
less ride on relays OF horses from near
Montauk, and reported the ship q
wreck on Montauk point. Mr.. Miller
went a to the insurance Office and said
in a loud voice to the clerk; Youneedn't
mind about that policy. I've heard
from my ship. You can give me back
my premium money" Before the
clerk could think what to say the pres
ident of the company stepped out
from his private Office with the policy
in his hand, saying: 'I'm sorry, Mr..
Miller, but your policy has been sign
cd and waiting for you two or three
days. meant to send 1t to you, but
1t was lying under some papers on my
desk" Mr.. Miller took the document
and noticed that the ink of the sigma.
ture was not dry. AS he turned to 90
he said: Eyes, I've heard from the
ship. She's gone to pieces on Mon
tauk point, a total loss"

peared to say good night" Despite
quiet looks from mamma the young
ster dallied for some time, going from
one to another in a very sweet and
childish fashion. Then he became
more noisy. and at last became soup
roarious that he was dismissed in dis
grace; not, however, before some one
had noticed that he was slipping from

to. 1t was thought TO be play, until
the mother, who had excused herself
to attend to the uproar up stairs, re
turned completely ''broken up" IL
seems that she went up stairs to ind
the young man in a state OF wild and
utter rebellion. He softened a little
when the surprised face of his dear
mamma appeared. Frederick, she
said, what does this mean? Get into

Frederick, with an unmistakable bic
cough, 81 will-if you will Just hold

Il is stated that more than two

In Memory Of Gen. sedgrIek.

Members of the Sixth army corps went
from Richmond, Va, on the 18th to spott-
sylvania court house to dedicate a tablet
to the memory OF the late Gen. S~edgwick.
At the battle field they were welcomed and
warmly greeted by a large gathering Of
v~irgiaians, including many ex-Conieder-
ates. The opening address was delivered
by Gen. H.. w. Wright. The monument
Is OF Quincy granite, approximately pyra-
midal in form, nine feet in height and five
leet five inches square at the base, and is
s~urmounted by a cross. Gen. ]. w. Lolita
delivered the memorial address, and was
followed by ey-Gov. Pingree OF Vermont.
The following letter from President Cieve-
land was read:
l have to-day received an invitation on
behalf OF the Sedgwick memorial a~ssocia-
ton, to attend on the 18th OF May next
the dedication OF a monument which shall
mark the spot where Mai. Gen.
Sedgwick was killed. The patriotic senti-
ment and devotion which erects among the
busy throngs OF life imposing monuments
in memory OF those who died 10 battle,
supplies proof Of that love and apprecia.
ton oil our soldier dead which is deeply in.
terwoyen as a part OF our national life.
But when the ground is marked
and set apart where, in valorous fights,
the blood was shed and the sacrifice
OF life IA made which preserved us
q national holy shrine is erected, where
all who love their country may devoutly
worship. Elaborate shafts OF marble fit
tingly remind us OF our soldier dead, and
OF their bravery and patriotism, but the
touching service your association contem-
plates. shall chasten all our thoughts OF
them, by pointing out on sacred ground the
spot where blood vas bravely shed and
life was patriotically offered up. with
thanks to the association for their remem-
brance at this time, and reeretting that
official dnties will prevent my acceptance
Of the Invitation rendered me.

A Timely Lesson.

The Rochester Democrat tells how
an actor gave a needed and timely les
son to three foolish little maids:
The last time Edwin Arden played
at the academy OF music he all uncon-
sciously captivated the hearts q q
trio OF school girls, the Oldest OF whom
a reached the mature age of fourteen
years. Their regard for the young ect.
or increased to such proportions dur
ing the week that they hired a box one
evening and sent a box OF roses to the
object OF their affection. Mr.. Arden
acknowledged the compliment by .
slight bow to the delighted occupants
OF the box and at the close of the PER
Torrance sought the waiting misses
and escorted them to a neighboring
restaurant, where he did the honors
IN q Diamond Dick fashion that
completely entraneed his companions.
But a surprise awaited the latter.
Tor the attor rather abruptly ended
the interview by speaking in a kindly
U impressive manner of the folly OF
the whole proceeding and warning his
youthful admirers that Irritation. no
matter how innocently begun. might
: not always terminate ~egreeably.
